23 January 2024 20:24 GMT
German police summoned Taqadum al-Khatib, a researcher affiliated with Princeton University and Berlin Free University, for questioning, following a post he published on his X account.
On 10 November, Khatib wrote, “Please inform the people, intellectuals, professors, the political elite and the media in Germany: ‘Surviving a Holocaust doesn’t give you the right to enact another’. RETWEET if you agree”.
On Tuesday, Khatib took to X and posted in Arabic that because of the tweet, the German police have summoned him to investigate “in a report filed against me by Zionist associations”.
“Welcome to the free world that supports and embraces freedom of opinion and expression. In this context, I welcome any legal support,” he added.
